What Is STIR/SHAKEN?STIR/SHAKEN & Robocall Mitigation
Reducing risk with caller validation for improved customer experiences
Build confidence in calling.
It’s critical for you to reinforce your customers’ trust in calls. STIR industry standards are designed to provide proof calls are legitimate by confirming callers are who they say they are, while SHAKEN is how inbound calls are handled. As the originating provider or sender of the call, you need to ensure the call completes with a reliable provider to sign for the call, verifying the caller is authorized to use the number. When you’re the terminating provider receiving the call, it’s equally important for you to protect your customers from robocalls and determine call treatment accordingly.
When it comes to mitigating fraudulent robocalls and unlawful caller ID spoofing aimed at scamming consumers, Inteliquent’s solution will have your back.
